Driver side air conditioning was not working. This was after I had the recall service done to the car at the same dealer. Of course they Denied they did anything wrong. They did a complete re-charge and added dye. I recently had the AC inspected there are no leaks and it is full so I’m still suspicious the dealer did something. |
